Swell Summary
Surf along east and some exposed north facing shores will remain elevated and rough at the High Surf Advisory level through Thursday. As the trade wind generated seas decline on Friday, a northeast swell will linger and likely keep east shore surf just below the advisory level. A downward trend is due over the weekend as the local winds shift out of the south and the northeast swell lowers.
A tiny, long-period north-northwest swell will move through this weekend. A more significant event is likely Sunday night through early next week due to a large, medium-period north-northwest swell from a nearby source. Advisory level surf is expected, with warning level conditions possible. A larger northwest swell will be possible late next week.
An out of season south swell will build on Friday, peak during the weekend, then decline early next week.
